hey guys, i have a 98 3.3l and i am in need of exhaust. I was wondering what you all would think a good muffler would be. I want something deep and not ricey sounding. Also the cheaper the better and inspection worthy. Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks alot

Here's two different exhausts which were just done, both threads contain a lot of useful information...

Personally I am a fan of Magnaflow, but let's compare the two brands...

Magnaflow-----------------------Straight Flow-through design (Maximum CFM's)100% Stainless Steel (Never rusts)One Million Mile WarrantyProduces a deep sound but a little higher pitched

Flowmaster-----------------------Baffled Design (Less efficient performance-wise)Aluminized Steel (Prone to rusting after several years)Three Year WarrantyProduces super deep tones and sounds pretty sweet

Another brand you may want to look at which hasn't been tried on an R50 is Hushpower. Hushpower is a branch of Flowmaster that makes Magnaflow-like muffler. Hushpower mufflers are straight flow-through mufflers, some of which are 100% stainless steel. They can be a bit pricey but I am sure you can find them online for pretty cheap.

Magnaflow for sure. In the last 3 weeks I've had both Flowmaster and Maglaflow mufflers on my Q and the Magnaflow easily beats out the Flowmaster. Construction quality on the Magnaflow is far superior. I was really disappointed with my Flowmaster 50 Series (5 chamber) but a few people have a 40 Series (4 chamber) and dig them.
